RSHE

Intent

RSHE is a whole school approach at Littlegreen, were we all have a role in empowering our young people to recognise harmful behaviour and give them the tools to handle the situation.

Our aim is that every pupil has a trusted adult that will listen to them, give them advice and support them and that Littlegreen is a brave space for pupils to be able to speak out to stay safe.

We have a culture that explores with our pupils ‘how do we make that safer?’ and a climate where pupils are able to ask questions and talk about what they are doing on and offline.

We ensure that emotional literacy is taught across all subjects, as we want our pupils to have the words to be able to understand how they are feeling and say how they feel. We are also teaching pupils to critically analyse across the curriculum so they are able to decide if what they are seeing or reading is reliable.

We teach the skills to be able to ‘prebunk’ (the techniques used to manipulate/cause harm so they are better able to recognise them) and be active bystanders so they are better able to support each other in their communities.  The 5D’s for being an active bystander; direct, delegate, distract, document and delay.

 

Implementation

The RSHE curriculum is taught through discrete weekly timetabled lessons delivered by the RSHE Lead or the class teacher using the E4S (Education for Safeguarding - West Sussex) curriculum:

Littlegreen Academy uses recommended resources to support teaching and learning from E4S -West Sussex. The subject lead is responsible for supporting teachers and providing appropriate professional development.

The needs of the pupils are identified using internal (the stage and age of our pupils) and external (the places and spaces that our pupils spend their time) data and then this is used to build a curriculum to meet those needs.

 

Impact

Pupils have access to information from reliable and trustworthy sources responding to local needs and can ask questions.

Pupils have the skills, knowledge and understanding of how to make safer choices in all aspects of the world.

Pupils have high levels of respect for each other and are supportive of one another’s wellbeing.

Pupils have the vocabulary and confidence needed to say how they feel.

Pupils are able to use their words, critically analyse and be active bystanders.
